S&S Cycle - Vintage Motorcycle TECH TALK

Pretty much anything not covered by the topics above. Short lived production bikes or vehicles, Electrical, Tires, Paint, Brakes, etc. Use this for tech questions, and "Shoot the Bull" for general conversation, no tech.

Eric, I haven't tried the diamond treads, But when I first restored my 40 ULH, I had a set of the Coker full height 5.00 by 16" jobs, and had to take them off again because of lumps in the side walls. Got stuck with them too, our buddy Ted would not take them back. I don't know what size you need, but the Avon "Safety mileage MKII" comes in 16, 18 and 19 inch sizes, and is a great alternitive. They are a full height profile tire.
